BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a heat dissipation sheet and a heat dissipation sheet-attached device.

2. Description of the Related Art

In recent years, together with efforts to decrease the sizes, increase the densities, and increase the powers of electronic devices and semiconductors, attempts for further integrating members configuring the electronic devices and the semiconductors have been underway. In a highly integrated device, a variety of members are tightly disposed in a limited space without a gap therebetween, and thus it becomes difficult to dissipate heat generated in the device, and there is a case where the device becomes relatively hot. Particularly, some of semiconductor elements such as a central processing unit (CPU) and a power device; light emitting diode (LED) backlights; batteries; and the like emit heat of approximately 150° C. or higher, and it is known that there is a case where the accumulation of such heat in the device causes a disadvantage of the occurrence of the malfunction of the device attributed to the heat.

As a method for dissipating heat in a device, a method of using a heat sink is known. In addition, a method in which the device and the heat sink are adhered to each other using a heat dissipation sheet in order to efficiently transfer heat in the device to the heat sink is known.

As such a heat dissipation sheet, for example, JP2009-197185A describes a transparent thermally conductive adhesive film including a resin and transparent or white fine particles having two or more peaks in the particle size distribution ([claim 1]).

In addition, JP2013-189625A describes a highly thermally conductive semi-cured resin film containing a resin in a semi-cured state and a filler satisfying a predetermined average particle diameter ([claim 6]).

In addition, JP2016-014090A describes a thermally adhesive sheet having a thermally adhesive layer (A) containing a thermal adhesive (al) and a thermally conductive filler (a2) ([claim 1]).

As a result of studying JP2009-197185A, JP2013-189625A, and JP2016-014090A, the present inventors clarified that, for the current devices that are highly integrated, there is room for improvement in a heat dissipation property.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a heat dissipation sheet having an excellent heat dissipation property and a heat dissipation sheet-attached device in which the heat dissipation sheet is used.

 DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.

There will be a case where a configurational requirement described below is described on the basis of a typical embodiment of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to such an embodiment. In the present specification, a numeric range expressed using “to” refers to a range including numeric values before and after “to” as the lower limit value and the upper limit value.

Heat Dissipation Sheet

A heat dissipation sheet of an embodiment of the present invention is a heat dissipation sheet containing a resin binder and inorganic particles.

In addition, in the heat dissipation sheet of the embodiment of the present invention, the inorganic particles include inorganic particles A having a particle diameter of 100 μm or less and inorganic particles B having a particle diameter of more than 100 μm.

In addition, in the heat dissipation sheet of the embodiment of the present invention, the content of the inorganic particles A is 10% to 30% by mass with respect to the total mass of the inorganic particles A and the inorganic particles B, and the content of the inorganic particles B is 70% to 90% by mass with respect to the total mass of the inorganic particles A and the inorganic particles B.

In the heat dissipation sheet of the embodiment of the present invention, regarding the inorganic particles A and the inorganic particles B that are contained together with the resin binder, the content of the inorganic particles A is 10% to 30% by mass with respect to the total mass of the inorganic particles A and the inorganic particles B, and the content of the inorganic particles B is 70% to 90% by mass with respect to the total mass of the inorganic particles A and the inorganic particles B, whereby the heat dissipation property becomes favorable.

The reason for such an effect being exhibited is not clear in detail, but the present inventors assume as described below.

That is, it is considered that, in a case where the content of the inorganic particles B having a particle diameter of more than 100 μm is 70% to 90% by mass with respect to the total mass of the inorganic particles A and the inorganic particles B, interfaces in which the resin binder is in contact with the inorganic particles decrease, the inorganic particles B serve as principal heat transfer paths, and heat from a device can be efficiently conducted.

A heat dissipation sheet 10 shown in FIG. 1 contains a resin binder 1, inorganic particles A2 having a particle diameter of 100 μm or less, and inorganic particles B3 having a particle diameter of more than 100 μm.
